I strongly believe (but have not much to back it up) that turning nights into days as we do has consequences on our psyche and biological cycles. It blurs the distinction between night and day.

I wish my local councilmen would try to experiment no light at nights and see what comes out.

I think a fabulous night sky also makes people, especially kids, wonder about the universe, what our place is in it, and how it all came about. That's part of why it's such a shame that it's obscured for so many.
